Based off a post I made on Reddit a while back. Hope y’all enjoy.

Edit: Since people are mentioning it - the stat buffs do not matter. I was being silly when I threw those in. But yes, the scale is 0-100.

    Glasses.

    Look, everyone votes for penny, but really if your social skills are exceptional, rendering you able to “flawlessly navigate social situations”, you can get a lot of it anytime.

    Want a super high paying job? Glasses! Wanna hit that girl? Glasses! Wanna get anything you want? Stay cool, with the use of glasses!

    Penny does seem OP, but only for as long as it’s active, and while it is on cooldown (which is, on average, a month) you live your regular life with all the misery, and even if you’ve managed to accumulate money and influence through your lucky streaks, there’s always a lot that can go wrong. Besides, a random nature of a penny means you can never rely on it, and always have to assume you’ll lose. Betting on a penny makes you the ultimate RNG person, with dramatic rises and even more dramatic falls. Betting on glasses makes you insanely powerful on demand. Always. Anytime.

      yeah but- you can get a high paying job, successfully hit on that girl, and so much more with the penny, yeah it’s only a 12h effect every two weeks (if you’re lucky) but during those 12hours you are a god

        Glasses are cool and all but you start to disappoint as soon as you take them off. Finding a girl that you will like forever that really likes you for who you are is a coin skill.
